National Church Residences will lease the land to build The Scarborough from Trinity Baptist Church, a church directly across the street from the new development. The community will be income-restricted and for those 62 and older.

The organization noted that HUD data showed the area was in need of affordable housing, with 50 or fewer affordable housing units per 100 low-income households in the area.

Including the HUD award, The Scarborough will be layered with a 4% housing tax credit from Ohio Housing Finance Agency and the City of Columbus.
